@MeTwitt @ai6yr @c_dan4th @zenrooster I occasionally see the odd wild turkey when mountain biking in the Bay Area.

@MeTwitt @ai6yr @c_dan4th @zenrooster We typically have anywhere from one to three dozen around our place. In the winters, they are a pack of locusts scrounging food - they'll cover the neighbor's crabapple and apple trees getting fruit, and they they fight and chase each other for it. In the evenings, they roost in the fir trees, and squawk annoyingly. In the mornings, they sail down from the trees into the street and all the turkey pimps show off their harems and argue Ford -vs- Chevy or something. Until you're used to it, it's loud enough to wake you. After the show, they split up into smaller groups that wander around pooping on everything. Throughout the day, you hear lost ones pipping constantly.
